Ubisoft keeps talking a big open-world game for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, but the publisher has finally put its money where its marketing is with this extended gameplay video.
Game director Ahsraf Ismail narrates thirteen minutes in which Captain Edward Kenway takes on a contract killing, chases down a target at sea, goes on a treasure hunt, and orders his crew to sing a shanty.

Oh yeah, and seamlessly roving from naval battles to infiltrating Mayan ruins is pretty cool, too. Especially when every vantage point doubles as a fast-travel node. Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag will release for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 on October 29 in the U.S. and November 1 in the U.K, and upon launch for PS4 and Xbox One.
